Enhance your new Viva Connections dashboard with Cards that show live data from users' favorite business apps
With the Viva Connections dashboard you have the ability to turn apps from the App Directory into Adaptive Card extensions. These Cards present employees their data in bite-sized snippets and can be expanded to show more details.
Use ACE Adaptive Card Extensions: Create beautiful Adaptive Cards that show an image or text in two sizes. These are ideal for internal comms, i.e. news or digital signage
Customize the quick view Adaptive Card design with the built-in low-code designer that can pull in real-time data from your apps
Create a much more seamless employee experience that turns your ordinary SharePoint into an extraordinary digital workplace hub.
Make custom Adaptive Cards (ACE) for Viva
On our personal dashboard we use enhanced Adaptive Cards, called ACE, that are the same used by Viva Connections. You can easily connect these to 3rd party business apps (see a list). With Adenin organizations can create real-time ACE widgets from any of their apps, and are not limited to Microsoft data or apps from App Source.
Start making your own Adaptive Cards Extensions for Viva Connections dashboard with adenin's built-in Adaptive Card designer, that offers beautiful business templates as well as out-of-the-box connections to dozens of business apps.
Adenin's platform is presented in SharePoint as the App integrations by adenin package. It's easy to install it and will give you access to all the App Directory apps and the Card designer.
Click the Install now button above, which will open the App integrations app on Microsoft App Source.
Sometimes, the installation from the App Source website can prove tricky. An easier way can be to instead search for the app on the SharePoint App Store, however there isn't a direct link to it so we'll explain how to manually find it
Go to the More features page in the SharePoint admin center and select Open under Apps
On the Manage apps page, select SharePoint Store in the left pane.
Search for App integrations by adenin and there select Add to Apps site
During the installation, select to Enable this app and add it to all sites, then press Add
After the installation you will be asked to Approve access so this app works as designed which you should follow by clicking on Go to API Access Page
There select the request for the User.Read scope and then press Approve. If there's nothing showing under Pending requests, then another SharePoint app has been granted this same permission in the past (it only needs approval once for all your SharePoint apps). Conversely, the User.Read scope could show as being requested by another app, in which case this app has made the request at an earlier install, and it never got approved.
Now go to your Dashboard, usually located at <your-sharepoint-domain>/SitePages/Dashboard.aspx, and add a new App integrations Card
Then select the Edit icon and select Embed an existing Card
Now copy your Card Share URL and paste it in the Viva Card
Optionally, you can edit your Card's Quick or Card View by clicking Edit in Designer or Edit the Quick View
